Memory Requirements
PCMCIA and Compact Flash Memory Cards PCMCIA memory or Compact Flash
memory cards will not work and are not supported on the Wireless Plus Print Server. The
Internal Wireless Plus Print Server and the b/g Print Server do not include a slot for these card
types.
Wireless Card Socket Option The ZebraNet wireless print server options replace the
Wireless Card Socket Option (WCSO) in 105SL printers with a serial number of 6400357 or
greater. Do not install a wireless option board on a 105SL printer with a serial number that is
less than 6400357.
Wireless Option Board A special wireless option board must be installed in your
printer/print engine. To determine if you have a wireless option board installed, use a printer
configuration label (refer to the “Printing Configuration Labels” section in your User Guide).
To purchase a wireless option, contact your authorized Zebra reseller for more information.
The wireless option boards are identified by the HARDWARE IDline on the printer
configuration label.
The part numbers shown on the HARDWARE IDline indicate the wireless print servers as

Configuration of Wireless Securities
51
Configuration of Wireless Securities
Important • A wireless option board must be installed on your printer before you can
configure the printer to communicate using a wireless radio card. See Hardware — Wireless
You may configure your printer for wireless operation in the following ways:
Through the Network Setup Wizard. The Network Setup Wizard is part of the
ZebraNet™ Bridge Enterprise utility. The Network Setup Wizard writes a script for you. On
the last screen of the wizard, you may choose to send the script directly to your printer, or you
may choose to save the script to a file. The saved file has several purposes:
• The file can be sent to the printer through any available connection (serial, parallel, USB,
or wired print server).
• The file can be resent to the printer after the network settings have been restored to factory
defaults.
• The file can be sent to multiple printers that will use the same network settings.
Note • To configure wired and wireless print servers on the same printer, run the program
once for each print server, creating a script for the wired print server and another for the
wireless print server.
The ZebraNet Bridge Enterprise utility resides on the User CD for your printer and is available
required to configure the printer correctly for use.
Through ZPL script that you write. Use the ^WXcommand to set the basic parameters
for security type. You can send the command through any available connection (serial,
parallel, USB, or wired print server).
Refer to the Programming Guide for ZPL, ZBI, Set-Get-Do, Mirror, and WML for more
User CD that came with your printer.
Through Set/Get/Do (SGD) commands. Begin with wlan.securityto set the
wireless security type. Depending on which security type that you select, other SGD
commands will be necessary to specify other parameters. You can send the commands through
any available connection (serial, parallel, USB, or wired print server).
Refer to the Programming Guide for ZPL, ZBI, Set-Get-Do, Mirror, and WML for more
User CD that came with your printer.
Note • With printers running APL-I, APL-D, or EPL firmware, the only way to configure
wireless settings is through SGD commands.

SIGNAL STRENGTH and
SIGNAL QUALITY
When these indicators display percentages, the wireless radio card is
communicating with the network. The higher the number is, the better
the connection is between the printer and the network.
If your printer indicates a signal strength but you cannot communicate
with the printer from your computer, move the printer to a different
location to try to get a better signal strength or signal quality. This
situation could also indicate that the printer is associated with, but not
authenticated with, your access point.
NOISE LEVEL
This number indicates any electrical interference with the wireless
signal.
If your printer cannot communicate with the network and the noise level
is high, move the printer to a location that is free of interference.

primary network device if a wireless print server is installed. To
change this default and allow the wired print server to be the
primary network device when it is connected, use one of the

Assigning an IP Address on any Print Server
Before you can begin working with a print server, you must get or assign an IP address for the
print server device.
The four different ways to assign an IP address are:
• DHCP
• ZebraNet Bridge
• Printer Control Panel/LCD
• Telnet
Important • For specific information on the default User ID and/or default password, see
With Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
If your network uses DHCP, your print server device is assigned a temporary IP address.
Note • Check with your Network Administrator to see whether your network uses DHCP.
Assigning an IP Address Without DHCP via ZebraNet Bridge
ZebraNet Bridge may be used to set the IP address. Refer to the ZebraNet Bridge Enterprise
User Guide for more detailed information.

Assigning an IP address Without DHCP from the Control Panel
These steps can be used with all printers with a control panel.
To assign an IP address from the control panel (or LCD), complete these steps:
Important • Your ZebraNet 10/100 Print Server must have firmware 1.xx.x and higher and
your Zebra printer must have firmware x.10 or higher with a control panel.
1. Turn on (I) the printer and wait until the control panel says PRINTER READY.
for specific instructions on the operation of your printer.
3. You may edit any of the following network settings in order to communicate with any
print server in your network environment.
Important • To change any of these settings, you need to enter the printer password. The
default password is 1234.
• ip resolution(dynamic, permanent) The printer menu item IP RESOLUTION
must be set to PERMANENT if attempting to assign the IP address from the control
panel.
• default gateway(default setting of 000.000.000.000)
• subnet mask(default setting 255.0.0.0)
• ip address (if initial default setting is 0.0.0.0, after 2 minutes this defaults to
192.168.254.254
• ip protocol (gleaning only, RARP, BOOTP, DHCP, DHCP and BOOTP, all)

Assigning an IP Address Without DHCP via a Telnet Session
The methods used for assigning an IP address with a Telnet session are Static Route and
Gleaning.
Important • This applies to any TCP/IP capable workstation/host networked with the Zebra
printer. Both, the workstation/host and the print server, must be on the same network
segment.
Before you can Telnet to the print server and configure it, you must first assign the print server
a temporary IP address.
Static Route
To use this method, complete these steps:
1. Turn on (I) the printer and wait for 2 minutes to allow for the device to complete the
self-test.
During this time, the print server performs an address broadcast. If no address is assigned
to the unit (via DHCP or BootP), it uses a default address. The default address for print
server is 192.168.254.254. Print the print server configuration label to confirm the
2. You can use the route addcommand to place the default IP address into the
workstation's network routing table.
3. At the workstation/host command prompt (in Windows, at the DOS prompt), type:
route add **** "IP address of the workstation" 0
where **** is the IP address on any print server configuration label
Note • The zero (0) placed at the end of the “route add” command is optional on some
systems.
4. Telnet to the print server by typing:
"Telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
The password is 1234.
5. At this point, you can alter the settings as desired. When complete, do a reset and allow
the print server self-test to complete before proceeding with any communications activity.

Gleaning
A method by which the print server uses the IP address of the first ping packet that is sent to its
hardware address.
Note • Gleaning works only on local subnets at routers. It does not pass Address Resolution
Protocol (ARP) broadcasts.
To use this method, complete these steps:
1. Add an entry to the ARP table that assigns an IP address to an Ethernet (hardware)
address.
The syntax for this command is:
arp -s <temporary ip address> <MAC Address>
Example • You would type: arp -s 10.3.50.59 00-07-4d-1D-B9-86
2. Power cycle the printer.
3. As the printer reboots, begin a continuous ping to the address assigned previously.
Note • Most UNIX systems use a continuous ping.
To use a continuous ping from a Windows host, you must issue the following command:
ping -t "ipaddress"
4. When the print server begins to respond, stop the ping activity.
In Windows, Ctrl + C halts the pinging.
5. Telnet to the print server and assign the appropriate IP address, subnet mask, and gateway,
if applicable.
6. Once this is complete, reset the print server.

Setting and Monitoring Alerts on Any Print Server

Setting and Monitoring Alerts on Any Print Server
It is important to understand the relationship between the print server and the printer when you
are establishing alerts. Here are the relationships you need to be aware of:
• Non-ZebraLink-enabled printers — can only send alerts on a specific set of printer errors
that are reported in the IEEE 1284 protocol.
• ZebraLink-enabled printers — ZebraLink allows for the printer to send alerts outside of
the IEEE 1284 protocol.
ZebraLink Alerts
ZebraLink Alerts give you the ability to manage your Zebra printers by immediately notifying
System Administrators of printer error or warning conditions, which reduces printer downtime
and increases application efficiency. Using Web-based configuration tools, selected errors or
warning conditions can be routed to a variety of destinations such as email messages, wireless
pagers, or ZebraLink Alerts.
Table 16 on page 65 shows the conditions that can trigger alerts and the possible destinations.

Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD)-Style Print Queue
BSD is a version of the UNIX OS that distributes software that includes TCP/IP.
Configuring the Print Queue
For remote BSD-style LPD printing, add the print server as a remote printer in the
/etc/printcap database to each host printing to any print server. You can add printcap options as
needed. If you are unfamiliar with these options, consult the printer documentation.
Important • You must be logged in as root.
The entry looks similar to this:
local_print_queue_name|[printer_model_and_manufacturer]:\
:lp=:mx#0:rm=ZebraNet_name:\
:rp=remote_print_queue_name:\
:sd=path_to_spool_directory:lf=just log_file_name
local_print_queue_name— This defines the name of the printcap entry. It is used by
the LPR/LPD utilities to specify which printcap entry is being referenced. Additional printcap
entries can be added as needed for different queue types. Each entry must have a unique
local_print_queue_name and a different spool directory to work properly. When you are ready
to print, use the local_print_queue_name that matches the data type of the file to be printed.
ZebraNet_name— This is the name (alias) of the ZebraNet print server. This must be the
same name as entered in the /etc/hosts file or your NIS or DNS system. An IP address may
also be used here.
remote_print_queue_name— This entry determines the ZebraNet port where the print
job will be printed and optionally specifies ASCII printing that must end for LF1.
path_to_spool_directory— This is the path to a directory where the print jobs will
be spooled for this queue. You must create a unique spool directory for each printcap entry.
log_file_name— This is the path to a file where error information from the LPD will be
logged.
Example • Your printcap entries might look similar to this:
Ascii_files|form.feed.Queue_on_Port_1:\
:lp=:mx#0:rm=pserver1:rp=MYQUEUELF1:\
:sd=/usr/spool/myqueuelf1:\
:lf=/usr/spool/myqueuelf1/queue.log

System V Queue Installation
Configuring Operating System V Queue for ZebraNet Printing
This section describes the configuration of the printing system on the UNIX operating system.
For clarity and brevity, the following specific names are used to represent general devices or
concepts.
lj4— The local queue name on the UNIX system to which you want print server print jobs
directed.
ZEBRAPRINTER— The host name or IP address of the remote system that is the print server
device. For example, to Telnet to any print server and invoke the print server configuration
utility, you would enter:
Telnet ZEBRAPRINTER
A host name is not required for the print server — the IP address can be used.
yourqueuename— This is the name of the queue on the ZebraNet and must end with LF1.
Prerequisites
Before you proceed, the following prerequisites must be met:
• The name ZEBRAPRINTER and the IP address assigned to the print server are in the
/etc/hosts file on the UNIX system.
• The LPD must be running on the UNIX system.
UNIX Configuration
To configure the UNIX machine so users can spool print jobs to the PCL print
queue on the ZebraNet named ZEBRAPRINTER, complete these steps:
1. Log in to the UNIX machine as root.
2. Type:
lpsystem -t bsd ZEBRAPRINTER
3. Type:
lpadmin -p lj4 -s ZEBRAPRINTER!yourqueuename - I any
4. Type:
accept lj4
5. Type:
enable lj4
6. Try printing by typing the command:

•
•
•
Nibble mode sends only 4 bits of data at
a time in the reverse direction from the
printer to the print server. When in
nibble mode, communications from the
print server to the printer are
accomplished via compatibility mode.
Byte mode sends a full byte of data at a
time in the reverse direction from the
printer to the print server. When in byte
mode, communications from the print
server to the printer are accomplished
via compatibility mode.
ECP mode is a complete forward and

Troubleshooting the Wireless Print Server
ZebraNet n Print Server Will Not Operate on the 5Ghz Band
You may need to set your country code in order to enable the 5Ghz band for the Zebranet n
Print Server.
• If you are using the wireless print server in the United States, Canada, or Japan, you will
not need to set the country code. These countries have been pre-set at the factory.
• If you are operating the print server anywhere else in the world, you must set the country
code to enable the 5GHz band. To set the country code, you must send a Set-Get-Do
command to the printer. For specific command information, see the Programming Guide
for ZPL II, ZBI 2, Set-Get-Do, Mirror and WML.
Resetting the Wireless Print Server to Factory Defaults
You may need to restore the network parameters to the factory defaults under the following
circumstances:
• If you download a different version of firmware to your printer
• If you need to reset the encryption keys (for instances where a key was entered incorrectly
or was forgotten)
After you return the network parameters to the defaults, you must reconfigure your printer to
saved the ZPL script generated by the Wireless Setup Wizard, simply send this file to the
printer, and then power cycle the printer. If you were using a wireless password, you must set it
again (use the ^WPZPL command or the wlan.passwordSGD command).
You can set the network parameters back to the factory defaults in two ways:
• The Restore Default Network Configuration button on the printer’s View and Modify
• The DEFAULT NET option, which appears as an option when you exit Setup mode.
Refer to the User Guide for your printer for specific instructions on how to modify the
control panel parameters.
Note • The LOAD DEFAULTS option and the Restore Default Configuration button
reset all printer parameters other than network settings back to factory defaults. The network
settings will not change when these options are selected.

ZebraNet Bridge Discovery or Configuration Problems
140
ZebraNet Bridge Discovery or Configuration Problems
If you are having problems using ZebraNet Bridge to discover or configure the unit, check the
following:
• Verify there is not a router between the workstation running ZebraNet Bridge and the print
server. Because the print server does not have an IP address, TCP/IP communication
cannot be started across a router. Run ZebraNet Bridge on the same subnet as the print
server.
• Verify the wired print server has a solid green light. If the LED shows a rapidly flashing
green light, check the network cable that is attached.
Unable to Print
If you are having problems printing, verify that there is communication between the print
server and the printer. Check the following:
• For the external ZebraNet 10/100 Print Server, print a configuration label by pressing the
test button. If a configuration label does not print, verify the printer has media and ribbon
(if used) and is not paused.
• For all print servers:
•
Ping the printer to determine the ability to communicate with the printer. See Ping the

Frequently Asked Questions
This section provides a group of frequently asked questions (FAQs) about Zebra’s wired and
wireless print servers.
FAQs
Can the print server option work on a computer network that is running both
TCP/IP and IPX protocols simultaneously? Yes. The print server runs all of its
available protocols simultaneously. This means that the print server can run on mixed
networks such as a network using Microsoft, and UNIX.
Important • The ZebraNet print servers do not support IPX, but they can function on
networks that use protocols.
Will the ZebraNet print server allow connectivity to anything other than a PC
network? Yes. The ZebraNet print server allows connectivity to systems such as IBM’s
AS400, provided that it is configured using TCP/IP. Other network protocols can be used with
third-party adapters that are converted to 10BASE-T or 100BASE-T.

What is the default User ID and password for the print server?
• The User ID is admin and the password is 1234.
What are my network connectivity options based on when using a print
server?
It depends on your environment, but the print server accepts print jobs in any of the following
ways:
• FTP — ZPL/EPL files can be sent to the printer via a FTP client as standard ASCII files.
• HTTP — (ZebraLink-enabled printers only) Using the script option of the print server’s
homepage, you can type ZPL into a specified location of the Web browser and send it to
the printer.
• IPP — Using third-party IPP clients, print jobs can be sent via the Internet.
• LPR/LPD — Sometimes referred to as queue based printing. LPR/LPD is the standard in
network printing. Most TCP/IP operating systems are compatible with this option.
• Raw socket connection — You can connect to the printer directly via the network,
bypassing everything in-between. This option is commonly used to integrate ZPL/EPL
into existing programs, such as VB scripts.
• POP3 — With proper configuration, you can place ZPL/EPL files into the body of an
email, and it will print. The print server periodically checks this email box at the specified
intervals and prints the body of the message. IMPORTANT: Attachments and subject lines
are not supported.

10BASE-T A type of Ethernet that uses unshielded twisted pair cable.
100BASE-T A type of Ethernet that can transmit 100Mb of data per second with a
twisted-pair cable.
ARP The standard TCP/IP method for determining the actual network address of a device
based on its IP address.
ASCII A standard for the binary representation of characters.
BOOTP BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) is a protocol that lets a network user be automatically
configured (receive an IP address) and have an operating system booted (initiated) without
user involvement. The BootP server automatically configures the following information: IP
address, gateway, subnet, system name, name server, and more from a pool of pre-determined
addresses for a certain duration of time. BootP is the basis for a more advanced network
manager protocol, the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).
broadcast In a network, a situation when all destinations on the network receive a given
packet.
client A workstation or PC in a client/server environment.
community For SNMP, a relationship between an agent and a set of SNMP managers that
defines security characteristics. The community concept is a local one, defined at the agent.
Each community is given a unique community name.
current mode (parallel port) A mode that the printer and print server negotiate.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) DHCP is an alternative to another
network IP management protocol, Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP). Like BOOTP, DHCP can
configure an IP address, gateway, subnet, system name, and name server. When speaking
about any print server, BOOTP, and DHCP configure the same options.

delete bytes This number is used to remove characters from the beginning of every job sent
to the logical printer. The value for delete bytes can range from 0 to 255.
dynamic A dynamic configuration, as the name implies, means that it changes. BOOTP and
DHCP offer time-based leases for the configurations they assign. Their changes depend on the
time-based lease, and how often the printer itself is offline and online again. A dynamic
configuration can include BOOTP or DHCP.
Extensible Authentication Protocol over Flexible Authentication via Secure
Tunneling (EAP-FAST) Extensible Authentication Protocol-Flexible Authentication via
Secure Tunneling (EAP-FAST) is a publicly accessible IEEE 802.1X EAP type developed by
Cisco Systems. It is available as an IETF informational draft. Extensible Authentication
Protocol-Flexible Authentication via Secure Tunneling (EAP-FAST) is a publicly accessible
IEEE 802.1X EAP type developed by Cisco Systems. It is available as an IETF informational
draft. Cisco developed EAP-FAST to support customers who cannot enforce a strong
password policy and wish to deploy an 802.1X EAP type that does not require digital
certificates, supports a variety of user and password database types, supports password
expiration and change, and is flexible, easy to deploy, and easy to manage. For example, a
customer using Cisco LEAP who cannot enforce a strong password policy and does not want
to use certificates can migrate to EAP-FAST for protection from dictionary attacks.
Extensible Authentication Protocol over Transport Layer Security
(EAP-TLS) Second generation Wi-Fi security. Current Wi-Fi security standards (802.1x)
define the use of the TLS protocol encapsulated within the Extensible Authentication Protocol
(EAP) as one of the strongest security mechanisms for Wi-Fi. Using EAP-TLS provides well-
regarded, standards-based security between an access point and a Wi-Fi client. This is a
Microsoft standard.
• A form of 802.1X (EAP) authentication
• Uses client and server certificates for mutual authentication (PKI)
• TLS 1.0 (Transport Layer Security) is based on Secure Socket Layer (SSL) 3.0
Extensible Authentication Protocol over Tunneled Transport Layer Security
(EAP-TTLS) EAP-TTLS is an extension of EAP-TLS which provides for certificate-based,
mutual authentication of the client and network. Unlike EAP-TLS, however, EAP-TTLS
requires only server-side certificates, eliminating the need to configure certificates for each
WLAN client. In addition, it supports legacy password protocols, so you can deploy it against
your existing authentication system (such as tokens or Active Directories.) It securely tunnels
client authentication within TLS records, ensuring that the user remains anonymous to
eavesdroppers on the wireless link and the entire network to the RADIUS server.
Ethernet A widely used local area network system based on the IEEE 802.3 standard.
firmware Software routines that are stored in ROM (Read Only Memory). This is typically
part of a device, such as a printer or any print server.
FTP File Transfer Protocol, a TCP/IP-related protocol for transferring files between devices
on a network.
Flash memory A type of memory that allows read-and-write operations, but permanently
stores data when the power is turned off. Useful for storing firmware because it can be easily
updated by downloading new code.

gateway A device that converts one higher-level network protocol to a different higher level
protocol.
gleaning A temporary, local configuration option. Gleaning lets you add the address of the
device you want to configure to your local workstation’s ARP table. This configuration is not
permanent and is valid only from the workstation from which you entered the ARP
information. After the information is entered into the workstation’s ARP table, the user
follows up with a Telnet session to enter the information permanently. Note: When using
ZebraNet Bridge, a wired PS with an address of 0.0.0.0 can only be discovered through a local
broadcast.
IP Internet Protocol, one of the main protocols of the TCP/IP protocol suite.
IP address A network address used by the TCP/IP protocol.
IPP Internet Printing Protocol. Allows you to associate a printer with a URL address that is
used for printing over the Internet.
JetAdmin A Hewlett-Packard printer management program available for NetWare and
TCP/IP.
Kerberos Network authentication protocol that uses the concept of a time-limited “ticket”
for access to network resources. Kerberos uses key distribution and client/server
authentication.
Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol
(LEAP or Lightweight EAP) A non-standard Wireless Security protocol from Cisco.
LEAP uses mutual authentication, meaning that both the user and the access point must be
authenticated before access to the LAN is allowed. Mutual authentication can help protect
wireless networks from rogue access points, man-in-the-middle attacks, sniffing attacks, and
active attacks. Based on 802.1X EAP protocol.
liquid crystal display (LCD) The LCD is a back-lit display that provides the user with
either operating status during normal operation or option menus when configuring the printer
to a specific application.
logical Refers to conceptual rather than physical. For example, a computer might have a
single physical connection to the network (an Ethernet adapter card), but could have logical
connections to several other devices on the network.
LPD LPD stand for Line Printer Daemon; it is the part that receives and processes the
request. A “daemon” is a server or agent.
MAC Address Media Access Control. Ethernet address that corresponds to the assigned IP
address.
name server A workstation on a TCP/IP network that provides a list of all workstations on
the network.
node A device connected to a network, such as a computer or print server.

parallel port A port on a device that sends information in groups of bits over multiple
wires, one wire for each bit in a group.
ping A TCP/IP command that determines whether a device is accessible on the network.
POP3 Post Office Protocol, the protocol used to retrieve email from the server.
port A physical connector, such as the parallel port, or a logical connection to a device.
post-string A string that is sent at the end of every job going to the logical printer.
Maximum 64 characters long.
pre-string A string that is sent at the beginning of each job that goes to the logical printer.
Max 64 characters long.
print server A device in a network that changes a network protocol into a printer protocol.
protocol A method of sending and receiving data between two or more workstations on a
network, and ensuring that the data is received without errors.
Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol (PEAP) A draft standard for a
common approach to wireless-network user authentication.
• A form of 802.1X authentication
• Currently an IETF draft (still subject to change)
• Performs mutual client/server authentication using transport layer security (TLS), but only
requires a server certificate
• With no client certificate, configuration is easier than EAP-TLS
RARP Reverse Arp, a standard TCP/IP method of determining a device’s IP address based
on its Ethernet address.
raw TCP port A type of TCP port in which data is passed unmodified to the receiving node.
RJ45 A type of modular jack connector similar to a telephone connector with up to eight
wires. Used for 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T Ethernet connections and for serial port
connections.
serial port On a printer or print server, a port that transfers data one bit at a time. Serial ports
usually have either a 25-pin, 9-pin “D,” or RJ-45 connector setting mode (parallel port).
A mode that the print server is set to for the highest level of parallel port communications.
server A device on a local area network that provides services to client computers on the
network.
SMTP Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, a protocol used to send email messages over the
Internet.
SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol, a protocol for monitoring and controlling
devices on a network.
